I'm not sure if I should be amazed or terrified. The next step in comic evolution has just taken place, and it's happened in a Mary Worth comic. Thought bubbles are now having thought bubbles. Does this mean all genuine thoughts from comics characters are in danger of being replaced by the erratic whims of thought bubbles no longer content to simply broadcast what the character is thinking, forcing the character to say everything, marking the end of the private thought or plot? (And will it have an effect on how soon the protagonist figures everything out?) Then again, it could be that Dr. Jeff here has bubble in bubble technology. That would mean he's an advanced human. An advanced human. In the Mary Worth Universe. I think I'd rather have the bubbles be alive.
